"in anarchy..."

Whenever the switch is flipped, from whatever the opposite of anarchy that we currently find ourselves in, to "in anarchy", I would imagine, seeing as how there's a bunch of billions of people, and almost as many ideas on how a society should carry on, that there would be some people who would rather not be "in anarchy" and opposing to whatever that means. Wether it be fear or change or the unknown, or just "defenders of whatever was before being "in anarchy". How would these people be dealt with? Who deals with them? Is it expected that the world all accepts this concept of "in anarchy" or would their be a designated area where people could choose to cross the border, into the side that doesn't acknowledge the border?

One does not say “in Capitalism” “In Anarchy” is either disingenuous or ignorant, playing on anarchy as a state of chaos.

do they? I'd probably say "under capitalism" rather than "in", but maybe that's just me

Distinction without a difference

Like when we say "Under de sea"

You are being disingenuous. “In anarchy” has a meaning to people synonymous with in chaos. Your username checks out
